[The Republican Administration] has ordered the CDC to not report on this"

trans people will literally go “i have a complicated relationship with my history with gender and sometimes see it as a gender i ‘used to be’ and i don’t really look like a cis person of either gender and i don’t think i can fit it into simple categories” and everyone will spontaneously combust

i feel like the people immediately getting on your ass about mentioning doug ford positively don't understand how politics works. sometimes awful people create/help to create good policies. if you can't talk positively about good policies, even if they're enacted by terrible people, then what the hell is the point. acknowledging that any politician is capable of various politics, those you agree with or not, is part of actually understanding how politics work. that's not to say we need to fall down at someone's feet upon doing anything positive, but it's just ridiculous to insist that we cannot praise good policies if they come from a shitty person.

Yeah, I think online spaces are so polarised that discussions on nuance just don’t take place anymore.

But you’re right, and posting about one person’s single good policy isn’t a ringing endorsement for everything they do.

I just want this on the record right now that I'm saying Kamala Harris is going to run for president again in 2028 and all the shit that yall are panicking about right now, planes falling out of the sky, trade wars, ICE raids, this DOGE shit, etc. Kamala Harris is going to run on doing all that same shit more competently than Donald Trump and people are going to tell you that you have to vote for her. the same people making fun of Trump voters for believing he'll bring the price of eggs down will tell you that you have to vote for Kamala so she can fix this while she's telling everyone she will make it worse.

This Black History Month, reflect for a moment on the fact that George Washington Carver, famously "the inventor of peanut butter and more than 100 industrial uses for peanuts" wasn't, like, Doc Brown fucking around in his garage because he really liked peanuts but was specifically trying to introduce larger use of a nitrogen fixing legume into crop rotations against cotton monoculture which was destroying yields, livelihoods and the biosphere, and how most agribusiness farming now just destroys that topsoil on purpose and continues to grow a cotton monoculture (or soy or corn or whichever local monoculture is profitable) using petrochemical derived fertilizer, which is one element driving climate change

Daniel Hale Williams performed the first successful heart surgery. He also founded the first nonsegregated hospital in America because he was keenly aware of disparate health outcomes by race which is still a problem today.

WEB Dubois was a part of the delegations for the birth of the UN. His proposal to include in the charter that "the colonial system of government … is undemocratic, socially dangerous and a main cause of wars" was not adapted for the final draft. We might see inaction against colonial violence to this day as part of the failure of others to heed his warnings there.

I feel like so often when we look at Black History Month so much of it is driven by factoids but when taken as history in context its about a direct line from decades and centuries to what is happening right now.
